  5. 5/5Best I’ve used

    I’ve tried out several different mind-mapping apps. Most of them were fine, but I’d quickly hit the paywall that makes a “free” app essentially unusable without paying for the “optional” upgrade. I’ve really liked using Escape though. It’s done everything I need it to efficiently and simply. There is (at time of writing) an optional “premium” in-app purchase, but it actually feels like it’s optional. Cool stuff, but not necessary to actually use the app. I’m really liking it and would recommend it.
